Needed : Pictures of The Meadows

[copperbeech5]

Hi,

I have mentioned this before, but now I am coming at it from a different angle!

Can anyone recommend and good books containing pictures of the Meadows for 1920 - 1940?  In particular I would like to get pictures of Cromford St, Willersley St, Colliery Row, etc.

I have seen theoldmeadows site, and although lovely, I can't find anything to help this particular problem!

As always, any help much appreciated!

Thanks,
Copperbeech5

PS If anyone has any old photos of these areas that could be copied, PLEASE.. PM me!

and some history and info on geoffrey Oldfields book on the meadows

Hi Suz,

Thanks so much for your help, I will try to Find the Geoffrey Oldfield book  to see if that can help.  The picture the past site I have looked at, but I will check again - thanks!

It's so frustrating to think that I did once go down Cromford St as a small child, if only I had known then that I would need the information now.... I should have paid much closer attention, but sadly it is but a vague memory.

Thanks again
